Into the bowels of the volcano

EDWARD_R, Aug 2024
Excellant tour. Vwry knowlegable guide. Not for people with mobility issues as at some points clearence was minimal and terrain was very uneven, rocky. Also had to descend to great depths and climb back up many stairs

Response from Host, May 2025

Thank you for your detailed review! We’re glad you enjoyed the Volcano Tour and appreciated our guide’s knowledge. We always advise that this tour requires a good level of mobility due to uneven terrain, narrow clearances, and stair climbing, so it’s great that you highlighted this for future guests. We hope to welcome you back for more unforgettable experiences in the Azores! Warm regards, The Sea Adventures Team 🌋🥾
